Festival Hall

With over 14,000 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor space, Festival Hall is Charleston, South Carolina's most versatile venue for any type of event. With stately columns framing its doors, Festival Hall makes a striking first impression within the historic Charleston landscape. Nestled in downtown’s Charleston Village neighborhood—easily walkable from some of the city’s premier hotels and restaurants—its white exterior contrasts with its lush adjoining courtyard and the Southern blue skies above. Step inside, however, and the stark façade gives way to a warm and welcoming industrial-style hall with glass paneling, exposed brick, and modern fixtures. Built in 1939 and renovated in 2008, our venue truly provides the versatility to accommodate your event vision...whatever you dream up, it can be done at Festival Hall!
